I am cautiously optimistic. It could be the best game of the upcoming generation. It could also be another train wreck like XIII.

It all comes down to it starting as Versus XIII, though. I have this deep belief that XIII was ruined by the executive oversight. The initial ideas soured as they drafted and some head honcho insisted on sticking with the sinking ship. As a fan of the series, I think the main titles are overrated and that the spinoffs are surprisingly good, probably because the spinoffs don't have as much executive oversight. As it didn't get promoted to main title until reasonably late in development, most of XV has been developed as a spinoff.

But it's still a big budget game and might have gotten oversight on that note alone.
